With emphasis on public speaking as a means for social justice,
Empowering Public Speaking helps students develop the communication
skills necessary to successfully effect change. Readers learn about
public speaking as a means of personal, social, economic, and
cultural power, and how communication shapes social relations,
identity development, and public awareness. Through examples and
discussions, the book demonstrates how public speaking is a
significant act that inspires social transformation. Over the
course of 12 chapters, students learn how communication creates our
social reality and shapes interpersonal relationships. They
discover the importance of critical, compassionate listening,
careful attention to power, and adapting speeches to a specific
time, place, and purpose. Dedicated chapters address the craft
required for effective public speaking, the responsibility of
finding and sharing reputable sources of information, and
strategies for delivering an impassioned address. The closing
chapters discuss speaker accountability, the constant evolution of
public speaking, and its ability to empower.
